Gen Raheel asks US to bomb TTP hideouts inside Afghanistan

E-Paper | March 15, 2026

RAWALPINDI: Army Chief General Raheel Sharif, in a meeting with senior US officials at GHQ on Friday, raised the demand of targeting Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) militants and their chief Mullah Fazlullah in their hideouts in Afghanistan.

Talking to Commander Resolute Support Mission in Afghanistan General John Nicholson and US Special Representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan Richard Olson, Gen Raheel said "Pakistan will not allow Indian and Afghan intelligence agencies to foment terrorism in the country".

According to an ISPR communique, the regional security situation with particular reference to border management and peace and stability in Afghanistan in the post-May 21 US drone strike environment came under discussion during the meeting.

The army chief reaffirmed Pakistan's commitment towards the war against terrorism and effective border management with Afghanistan in order to promote regional peace and stability.

Expressing his serious concern on the May 21 US drone strike in Balochistan ─ which had killed Afghan Taliban chief Mullah Mansour ─ and terming it a violation of Pakistan's sovereignty, Gen Raheel highlighted how the drone strike negatively affected the mutual trust and respect between the two countries and the gains made during Pakistan's own war on terror.

He told the visiting dignitaries that it is unfortunate that Pakistan is blamed for instability in Afghanistan, adding that Pakistan has always expressed its readiness to work for a long term peace process for Afghanistan under the Quadrilateral Coordination Group (QCG) framework.

Continued involvement in afghan problems will eventually make Pakistan a banana republic and that would make enemies very very happy.

China cannot, Japan cannot and Russia cannot. All 6 trillion dollar which US government owes to foreigners can be printed in three months and paid back. May be this action will provide necessary inflation urgently needed in the western countries as deflation is a problem there. Afgan Taliban and Pakisatn cannot throw out USA in the same manner what Iran and Vietnam Did. As far soviet union withdrawal from Afghanistan is concerned it was a negotiated withdrawal. Taliban were able to topple Nazibullah only after Yeltsin stopped supporting him.

Afghan government and US forces must not allow RAW and Afghan intelligence to support acts of terror inside Pakistan. These hostile infiltration and acts of aggression from within Afghanistan's soil against Pakistan must stop. Pakistan must seal its western borders with Afghanistan with only few controlled and monitored entry points.

@Chicago You have endorsed my recommendation. He should rise to the occasion and lets get him promoted to the rank he deserves. Time for him to be in-charge of all that matters for safely, security and sovereignty of Pakistan. If the nation loses this opportunity it will an opportunity lost for decades to find a good and balanced leader of his caliber. Generals material to be promoted to Field Marshal is General Raheel Sharif. Tomorrow will be better for Pakistan with him being in the saddle to manage future challenges that are yet to come to be faced by Pakistan. India's nefarious design's can be countered by him more efficiently single handedly than by any other General. Rise to the occasion General Raheel Sharif, Pakistan is with you!

@Abdul Karim I second your comments. Fully agreed. That's the immediate need of Pakistan to address this cross border terrorism being exported by India through Afghanistan. These recommended measures will reduce a great deal of present ongoing terrorism coming to Pakistan through Pakistan's western borders. Seal the Pakistani western border at all points and manage only two legal border entry points that being one in KPK and other being in Baluchistan. Rest all points of crossing must be heavily guarded with effective measures as Iran does it on it's Iran-Pakistan-Iran-Iraq borders etc.
